| Özet |
| Water scarcity is becoming an increasing problem due to population growth and rapid urbanization. This study evaluates the water quality of Kirazlı Stream, located in the Kastamonu Province, in Turkey’s Western Black Sea Region. To determine its suitability for regional use, samples were collected from 12 stations over 12 months between December 2021 and November 2022. A total of 24 physicochemical parameters were analyzed. Water quality classifications were assigned based on threshold values from the European Union (EU), World Health Organization (WHO), and Turkey’s Surface Water Quality Regulation (TSWQR). The results revealed that Kirazlı Stream, categorized as Class I water quality, is suitable for use. The order of the mean values of cations were as follows: Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+ (39.14, 14.09, 12.45, and 5.95; mg/L), and order of anions: SO₄2− > Cl− > NO₃− > PO₄3 … |
